About

Yr Hen Dderwen is a local pub offering great value food and drink. We pride ourselves in serving traditional Welsh ale and quality food.

Story

Yr Hen Dderwen is named after Merlin's Old Oak that used to grow in Priory Street.

Carmarthen is said to be the birthplace of Merlin (Myrddin). The prophecy states that when Merlin's Oak shall tumble down, then shall fall Carmarthen Town.

In the early 19th Century, a local man appears to have poisoned the tree. The last fragment of the tree was removed in 1978 and Carmarthen is still standing strong.

Reviews
We visited just over a week ago whilst staying in Carmarthen, on Friday evening.nService was fast after ordering on the app. Food was ok, perhaps slightly below the usual Wetherspoons standard. Staff seemed pleasant when bringing it over and a glass collector even asked us how our food was when passing. Slightly loud and lairy atmosphere, but it was getting towards 7.30pm when we left so that's to be expected. Toilets were ok for cleanliness.
Bit grubby & run down in my opinion. Massive disappointment as this was number 100 for us and we wanted it to be a special occasion. Had a glass of Prosecco to celebrate our hundredth Spoons which was nice. Not a pub we would rush back to. Carpets and seats looked tired. Didn't eat here so cant comment on the quality.
Ordered traditional breakfast. Plate stone cold. Beans stone cold - inedible. Hash browns - stone cold - inedible. Bacon - stone cold - stiff as cardboard - inedible. Egg overcooked but edible. Only hot element was sausage. Very disappointed.
#CAUTION#nnCalled in for our evening meal of, one chicken jalfrazi and a sweet potato chickpea and spinach curry. One cherry Pepsi max and one lime soda.nnThe drink came Uber fast, faster than any other one we have been to.nnThe food is a totally different kettle of fish. Both Currys had been half way heated through in the microwave. I'm not a chef but I know when what happens when you don't stir the food halfway through. Chicken jalfrazi was warm ISH in parts and the sweet potato was so hard you really had to push to get a fork through. The poppadoms had been shown the oil and still raw in parts. The food took ages to come no staff at all seen in the dining area from when we sat down for 25 minutes.nnWhile the chap in the white shirt with a ponytail was bringing our food one of the poppadoms fell from a plate. When he comes with our food eventually as I can see the order board as the door to the dumbwaiters are always open, so I knew the food had there for 10 mins for someone to collect them. I mentioned to him about the poppadom missing and gave me an ignorant response like I was talking in a different language.nnNo one came to ask if everything was okay or anything. This is not what I expected from a company we both frequent for both food and drinks.nnNice inside RUBBISH PEOPLE !
Absolutely shocking bar service. It could be heaving in there and only one behind the bar 2 max..nWhen it's quiet, 3 or 4 behind the bar. There is on e girl from the Rhondda way who is brilliant. She takes multi tasking to a whole new level.. there is always a few tables full of empty glasses. Clean them away ffs. It is the same when it's quiet there. There is no order of service when it's full at the bar. Everyone just wants to be served. Carmarthen has to be the worst ever spoons. It is a complete joke there!
